Salmonflys are still in the mix! They were spotted around Stove Prairie this weekend. Come grab your assortment to match these bugs!
The Poudre is up! The river will be off color for the time being, between rain and snow melt, it seems run off is here to stay. Nymphing larger bugs like the Restless Stone or Prince Nymph, as well as mixing in some flashier bugs like the Ticket or Rainbow Warrior. Large Chubby Chernobyl patterns or a Salmonfly Half-Cocked would be the go to for dry fly fishing. Streamers can also prove to be effective in this dirty water -Stay Dark!
As the weather keeps warming up and the water level in the canyon continues to rise, be cautious when you are on the river and fish those edges. As always, be safe out there and tight lines!
